The plane airdropped 12 Lion-containers, but 2 of the containers landed 500 metres from the drop zone. The English report states that 2 packages were also airdropped – one with grenades and the other with “Eureka” (radio beacon). It is unknown as to whether these were received. The consignment was later sent to Aalborg.
